I quit in 1980 after about 15 yrs of smoking. I don't remember having too hard of a time. My father died a year after I quit and I thought I would go back but...
2000 V / 87,000 miles. How much trans fluid should I buy when draining just the pan? Also, can I mix NAPA Mercon V with what is in the trans (assuming it's...
2000V /87,000 miles. Temp gage moves up to and stays at lower line of gage. Let it idle for 10 mins it stats to come up. I'm thinking that the thermostat isn't...
Hi, I saw filter sold with 25 liters of ATF for complete fluid change. So it seems to be proper amount. I never did it, so I won't play wise guy; propably...
If you change yours, go sorta easy on the silicone you need for a gasket on the housing. Â I did mine a few years ago and last time I tried to drain everything...
The shop manual recommends measuring the amount you remove and add that amount back in. Then warm up the trans fluid by running the engine, and check the...
Hello! I have a 1997 Villager and had a new water pump installed last week. Since then the needle on the temperature gauge bounces like crazy. Sometimes it...
Seems to be obvious, but as far as I wrote mails with Charlie, he wrote that old ATF will still remain in coolant hoses or somewhere there so it is not enough...
You have air trapped in the cooling system. Very common problem. There is a lot of information in the files about how to "burp" the air out of the system. It...
You are correct, but this person just wants to remove the pan and then refill what he drained out. It does not sound like they want to flush the entire...
I do this quite regularly with mine, and it takes 5 quarts. I use a synthetic replacement that meets and exceeds the Nissan specs. Works for me, YMMV. Gordon...
Others have drained, measured amount, refilled and done this one or two more times at the same time they do an oil change. This way you will have more fresh...
If the gauge itself is not malfunctioning it means that the water (coolant) is surging (percolating) up through the engine, forming steam under high pressure...
With the local garages around here when you ask for a tranny oil change, they ask flush or not? With the V/Q a "NO" flush means drain it only at the pan plug. ...
Ellen: I agree with Gerry, pretty sure you will find it is low on coolant. If your shop is like many around here they don't have the evacuation tools and are...
Charlie: We have always done a full flush of any and all automatic transmissions we have owned, other than the old junkers I had as a kid, and have never had...
 Did mechanic install new thermostat??? What was the condition of timing belt?? Was timing belt replaced?? Did the old water pump leak coolant onto timing...
Randy, Do you drop the pan as well?? How much oil does it take then?? How do you do the flush?? loosen one of the coolant lines and run the engine or use one...
I quit about 20 years ago. Gave 1/2 pack away and never had the urge for another cigarette. Didn`t have a bigger appitite either. I was a 2 pack a dayer....
It just took me 3 tries. Gerry ... From: vtcress <auto.quest@...> Subject: [villagerquest] Motor Mount Chart To: villagerquest@yahoogroups.com Date:...
Gerry; Since the beginning of that chart a few years ago I bet I spent over 40 hours or more on it. I had to get pictures of each mount and research all the...
Thank you so much Gerry, Ronald, Larry and Randy. I did print out the answers and am ready to take it in tomorrow morning. Larry I'm embarassed to say I...
Mechanics hand out the same baloney to everyone, not just women. _____ From: villagerquest@yahoogroups.com [mailto:villagerquest@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of...
Ellen: Freed is right, I have heard some crazy diagnosis over the years, give to men and women, about what was wrong with certain vehicles. I just don't know...
Charlie: The transmission is one thing I have always had done at my local transmission shop. They always drop the pan and check to see if there is anything in...
